Lake sediment core data for the Mekong River Delta (Vietnam), Red River Delta (Vietnam) and Ganges Brahmaputra Delta (India and Bangladesh)

This dataset includes results obtained from lake sediments for grain-size, total inorganic/organic carbon, XRF, magnetic susceptibility, core scan imaging, sedimentary pigments, stable isotopes, radiometric dating (chronological), and site data including water chemistry at the time that sediment cores were obtained. Data is generated across multiple cores taken from each site at a differing range of depth resolutions within the sediment cores. Not all sites have had every analysis completed based on available time, core quality, and/or issues with additional funding or equipment. However, all analyses are expected to be completed within the next year or two. Bangladesh currently has the most complete dataset, followed by the Red River Delta sites and India.
